Hitachi Solutions and TitanFile Partner to Offer New Secure File Sharing System With Enhanced User-controls

Many firms and Corporate Legal departments are faced with information access and data integration challenges. In order to offer users with hassle-free, hacker-proof security to communication set up of law firm, Hitachi (News - Alert) Solutions America, Ltd. and TitanFile Inc. are introducing a collaborative communications system built for today's corporate legal departments. A secure client communication system is essential to successful law firm operations.

This new collaborative communications system allows confidential file sharing anytime, anywhere with the user maintaining control of the encryption key to further safeguard confidentiality. The system will allow users to directly control who can access and view files while conveniently sharing documents with clients, legal teams and company management. It keeps sensitive files in an encrypted state as they are distributed across platforms or shared on mobile devices.

Yuji Nakagawa, vice president, Security Solution Department of Hitachi Solutions America said in a statement, “One way law firms can mitigate their risks and stand out from their competitors is to offer a higher level of security for their clients' sensitive documents and an information sharing system that allows staff to provide better, faster and more convenient client service.”

The encryption key is protected under the control of user's password that no one -- not even Hitachi Solutions or TitanFile -- can access the encrypted data. These protections are designed to prevent unauthorized disclosure and subsequent fraudulent use.

Centralized user management allows users to add or remove users and groups through an intuitive security admin console. The system's three layers of security, flexible BYOD policy and mobile capabilities, IT management can automate the enforcement of firm-specific risk and file sharing standards.

Nakagawa said in a statement, “TitanFile integrated with Hitachi Solutions' Credeon Cloud Data Protection will bring this next generation of competitive, seamless functionality to law firms.”
